Workers’ compensation – Carpal tunnel syndrome

Where the insurer appeals from a decision awarding the employee §34 benefits as a result of bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome, two of the arguments raised by the insurer — (1) that the judge committed an error of law in conducting his analysis under §1(7A), and (2) that the judge’s award of temporary total incapacity benefits was internally inconsistent — require the court to vacate the decision and recommit the case to the administrative judge.
